Breakwater Spotlight

With Summer Solstice quickly approaching, Breakwater has been enjoying summer vibes and community events that make life in the Keweenaw shine. This past weekend, we celebrated the 66th Anniversary of the Portage Lake Lift Bridge by participating in Bridgefest activities. As we look ahead, we are excited to join our community in celebrating the summer season by continuing to support the events, traditions, and gatherings that bring our communities together.

We’re excited to share that My Financial Health, our credit monitoring and financial wellness tool, is now available directly within Online Banking and the Breakwater mobile app!

With My Financial Health, you can stay informed about your credit and take steps to strengthen your financial health—all in one convenient place.

Through classroom programs, community events, partnerships, and hands-on activities, Breakwater directly engaged with 365 individuals throughout the month. In addition, our efforts indirectly reached an estimated 169 parents, volunteers, observers, and community members who participated in or experienced these events alongside attendees.

April is National Financial Literacy Month, and Breakwater Federal Credit Union is celebrating with several hands-on events designed to build confidence and real-world money skills for all ages. Take a look at the events below and join us for a month of learning and fun!

As we move into the spring season (fingers crossed), we are excited to share updates about the many projects Breakwater has been working on in support of our mission and vision. From expanded financial literacy initiatives and community partnerships to our upcoming 72nd Annual Business Meeting & Dinner, our calendar is packed with opportunities to connect this spring. Read on to see how these efforts reflect our ongoing commitment to building lifelong relationships and making a positive impact in the communities we serve.

2026 is shaping up to be a busy and exciting year at Breakwater Federal Credit Union. From everyday classroom visits to larger-scale financial literacy events, we are working hard to bring our vision to life by empowering our members and community with valuable financial resources and education.
